Comment on Doom the dark ages...
Hazzard@lemm.ee 5 weeks agoI think you may want to look into DF’s recommended settings, touching base with my friend who I sold my previous 6700XT to, he reports a rock solid 60.
That said, they don’t claim a performance increase that drastic, you may have some other performance issues?

The game has forced Ray Tracing and FSR is broken. Both of which lead to terrible performance on AMD machines. Those are the issues I’m having.
…am I supposed to be impressed by that?

It’s better than you’re getting on the tier-down card from the exact same generation as what you’re running, so… it pretty clearly indicates something is going wrong on your end.
And that’s with the forced ray tracing. Regarding FSR, DF recommends using XeSS, which I’ve had no problems with even using performance mode to play on a 4K display.
It’s only really fair to judge the performance cost of the ray tracing if you’re actually running the game fairly. If you’ve maxed out every setting to ultra nightmare at native 4K or something to get that “can’t even hit 40FPS” figure, then I have no sympathy for you or your performance complaints.

It’s not. I’m running in 4k.
Which also does not work. I am not alone here. Tons of people are reporting this. It’s not on my end.
I’m not here for your sympathy. I’m here to answer OP’s question.

Alright, fair enough. The brand new AAA graphical showcase doesn’t run above 40FPS if you’re insistent on native 4K from a 6800XT. I’m not sure that qualifies as “runs like ass” like your original comment, but it’s a fine thing to qualify.
I will add however that there’s no mention of XeSS issues on the “known issues” page, so I’m unsure what you’re referring to. Only an issue with FSR frame generation and manual window resizing, and frankly I wouldn’t recommend frame generation in any circumstance anyway. Perhaps the issue you’re referring to has already been resolved?
